Re: Strange Error Message

The file in question is set up like this:

Allow read operation . . . . . . . . . . . : Yes
Allow write operation . . . . . . . . . . . : Yes
Allow update operation . . . . . . . . . . : ALWUPD *YES
Allow delete operation . . . . . . . . . . : ALWDLT *YES

The customer should have full access to maintain this file.

I'm really puzzled by the reference to a file named MYLIB in library
QGPL. Our application does NOTHING in QGPL. I'm going to open a ticket
with ProGen to see if they've seen this before.

I'm also puzzled because I can't get it to fail locally.

Rob,

See the CRTPF command, prompt, press F10 for additional parameters, and
look for:

Allow update operation . . . . . ALWUPD *YES
Allow delete operation . . . . . ALWDLT *YES

This is useful for example when creating a "log" or history file where you
want to allow the application to write new records, but you do not want
users to be able to update or delete the "history" (so then set the above
attributes to *NO).

It is only the "Allow Read" and "Allow Write" that are apparently reserved
for IBM internal use only.

Then the "real" file it is being overridden to may be different on one
system to the next. Do a DSPFD on the file it is being overridden to.
Look for these options on the DSPFD:

Allow read operation
Allow write operation
Allow update operation
Allow delete operation

Normally changing these is out of the hands of us mortals and is reserved
by IBM. A very simple example of when this occurs is when you start a
"temporal" table the history table will have write's and updates blocked
but you can still delete so that you can purge off old rows.
